we are talking about senator john mccain american hero. he was a former prisoner of war and was tortured to the point he cannot lift his arms over his head. republican senator who has dedicated his life to public service. and battling brain cancer. how hard is it to say we're sorry for a staff making a crass remark? all common sense and common decency is ignored. listen to the head of the american consumer union and is married to the white house communications director. >> kelly is my friend and i feel bad she is going through this. she immediately called to apologized. she is also a little bit of a victim here. i don't blame anybody like you to run with leaks out of the white house. it's your job and you're trying to give transparency to the american americans and the voters. the problem is that none of us were in this room. the people who leaked it have animous against her. that is the problem in this white house, when people have animus she go public. we don't know what kelly meant by that term. >> it seems like we know what she meant.

sanjay, you know senator mccain's medical history very well. examined his medical records when he ran for president in 2008. give us a sense how serious this latest procedure was. >> wolf, when you read the initial descriptions it didn't sound that serious. you heard about an incision sort of in and around the eyebrow, and removal of a blood clot. what we've learned, though, i think, a statement released an incision made around the left eyebrow of senator mccain. you feel the left eyebrow, feel that bone behind there. that bone was actually removed. called a craniotomy. you do that to gain access to the brain. so this blood clot that they call it, five centimeters in size, was located in, or inside or just on top of the brain. that's a pretty significant procedure to expose the brain like that. we heard that he's doing well after the operation. that bone was placed back so, you know, he's -- that bone is now back in the appropriate position in the skull. the big question is, what exactly was that? abnormali abnormality. say a blood clot. was it

senator john mccain there. dana bash standing by. very heavy price will be paid. outline for us what that price might be. >> reporter: well, before i tell you that, the nuclear option was just detonated on the senate floor, as we were playing that tape from senator mccain they finalized the vote. it's backwards, counter intuitive the vote 48-52. what that effectively did was say the ruling of the chair, which was that anything -- that the particular nomination needed 60 votes to overcome the filibuster, that that was wrong. so it overcame that ruling and what that does is set precedent for future nominations, for future judicial nominations, executive branch nominations. what that particular ruling and vote just did was change the rules of the senate. again, what we're talking about here what that nuclear option is, is to prevent the minority effectively from waging a filibuster that democrats in this case or majority can't overcome. threshold was 60 votes. and it is at least in the makeup of the current senate impossible for democrats to overcome that on partisan
